Abstract
The internet of things (IoT) is ushering in a new dawn of technological innovations in recent decades for commercial applications. The technological innovation commercial applications manifested in two forms: (1) firstly, development of industrial products and services (e.g., procurement, manufacturing, transportation, and customer service) and, secondly, digitization of business activities. In this way, regular business operation-related data collection, preservation, and analysis using digital technologies (e.g., IoT) are shaping strategic value for companies. For example, the data exchange within and among affiliated devices company works is growing, and such systems' ubiquitous nature brings them into possession of business-sensitive data and information. Hence, industries are placing immense importance on the management of security and privacy of these data to maintain smooth business continuity. Moreover, IoT-based enterprise information systems often use cryptography to maintain data security.
